Other Screensaver on sway and tty

[Someone]

I am trying to use a screensaver, both in raw console (tty1 lets say) and wayland/seay session.
sysctl kern.vry gives vt
i /etc/rc.conf i have

blanktime="300"
saver="green"
scrnmap="NO"

kldstat gives

kernel
zfs.ko
i915kms.ki
drm.ko
iic.ko
linuxkpo_video.ko
dmabuf.ko
lindebugfs.ko
ttm.ko
acpi_dock.ko
acpi_wmi.ko
ichsmb.ko
smbus.ko
hms.ko
hidmap.ko
hcons.co
hsctrltrl.ko
hmt.ko
hconf.ko

Any ideas why screensaver fails to launch after idle period? Thanks.

For console, the saver is for syscons only which is deprecated and replaced by vt. I don't know if there is a saver for vt.
If you really want to use syscons you need to add kern.vty=sc in /boot/loader.conf.

For the wayland session, it depend on your DE or compositor. For sway there is swayidle with swaylock or swaylock-effects if you want some fancy saver.
